Don't worry Gilead is still here and it seems we're gonna see more awful parts of it. Hulu has renewed The Handmaid's Tale for a third season, just a week into its new second one. The network also revealed that the show doubled the viewership since its premiere.

Last year, The Handmaid's Tale became the first series from a streaming service to won the Emmys' biggest award, Best Drama and four more. The Critically acclaimed original series is Hulu’s most popular show as of yet. Creator Bruce Miller previously said that the show could go on longer than three seasons. Well, Gilead isn't getting any better soon so apparently, the awaited conclusion could take up to ten seasons even. Miller said to New York Times, "When I started, I tried to game out in my head what would ten seasons be like? If you hit a home run, you want energy to go around the bases, you want enough story to keep going if you can hook the audience to care about these people enough that they’re actually crying at the finale."

The series is based on Margaret Atwood’s 1985 novel of the same name. It depicts a totalitarian theocracy in which humanity has become mostly infertile. That leads remaining fertile women to be stripped of their rights and turned into sexual slaves called "Handmaids". The first season covers all of the books so the second one recently started to introduce new storylines and locations. And now the third one will also do so.

The third season has yet to get a release date but most likely we can catch it as soon as next year. And again most likely Elisabeth Moss will be back. If she can survive Gilead one more time.
